I have a Presario X1050, the laptop just froze on me all of a sudden, the screen went a little weird on me with waves going from one side to the other of the screen. I shut it down imm. but then it never started again. Now when I turn it on, the power light comes up, I hear the hard disk running for a second or two then everything comes to a still. Tried removing the battery and reattaching it ..didn't worked.

I would really appreciate any advice from you guys.

Thank you.

my compaq presario CQ61 won't start up.All of the lights are on but screen is blank.What to do???

first dip just the screen into water, make sure not to get any of the keys wet. then stick in the microwave for approxmently five seconds. then try starting your laptop. this worked for me. email if you have any questions KWchong24543@yahoo.com

Chong, you have to be joking right! Dipping it in water and nuking it? Come on now!

You should post this question as a new discussion rather than a comment to a 13 year old, long dead, thread. That way you are more likely to get your question answered. Not all those who might be able to help will see this otherwise... All the best.
